Cardigan "Rowan"

A smooth gradient from steel to fiery red and a striking diagonal pattern draw attention to the long sleeved cardigan.

Model Marina Smirnova

Size: oversize

You will need: пряжа YarnArt Flowers Alpacа (20% альпака, 80% акрил, 940 м/250 г) — 500 г секционно окрашенной, крючок №3,5. Чтобы получить плавный градиент в готовом изделии, в процессе вязания необходимо отрезать нить и менять клубок каждый раз при смене цвета.

The entire fabric is knitted in single crochet stitches using the back half-loop.

Start knitting: cast on a chain of 4 chains. p., close it in a ring.

 Knit 21 rows according to pattern 1.

Sleeves: in the next 12 rows along the edges of the sleeves, make decreases so that the edge is even (diagram 2).

 Next, count 5 stitches from the edge of each sleeve and sew this section from the wrong side of the product.

Knit the next 22 rows as one piece, increasing in the middle of the front and back and decreasing at the sides.

You will get a cardigan with triangular protrusions in the middle of the front and back.

To level the hem, it is necessary to fill the voids on the side [in diagram 3, these areas are indicated in dark color]. To do this, attach the thread to the middle of the back (front) and knit according to pattern 3.

Planks: first knit the placket at the bottom of the cardigan.

 To do this, dial 10 air. p. and attach the chain with a connecting loop to the main fabric.

 Knit the bar in single crochets using the back half loop, connecting each row to the cardigan with a connecting loop. Cut the thread.

Again, dial a chain of 10 air. p., attach it to the bottom of the already knitted plank and similarly tie the plank on the shelves and neck, and then on the sleeves.
